"Conny?"

Emma peeked from behind the curtain, Little Bunny in hand.

She slowly started making her way towards the spotlight with a table decorated with wine and other food.

Conny.

The blonde little girl was sprawled out on the table, eyes wide with the same pale skin Emma saw at the truck.

A growl was heard, echoing across the room. Emma tensed up and slowly turned around, only to come face to face with drool and sharp teeth.

She gasped as she woke up. Quickly, she sat up breathing heavily, looking down at her sheets.

(Name), who was already up and changing, glanced at her. He buttoned up the last on his shirt and turned towards the girl.

"Emma?"

The said girl tensed up yet again, looking up at (Name) with tired and pained eyes. The boy quickly sat by her side, putting a hand on her messy hair.

"What's wrong?" The pink haired boy asked worriedly. Emma could only stare helplessly at him.

(Name) then hugged Emma, in hopes to comfort her. Her eyes squinted as tears started pouring out of them. She squeezed him tight and closed her eyes shut as she silently cried into his shoulder.

Once her tears were dry, (Name) gently smiled at her, "You should go back to sleep, Emma. You still have two more hours until everyone wakes up."

Emma slowly nodded as (Name) gently laid her back down onto her bed, pulling the covers over her.

Emma slowly closed her eyes, now snoring softly.

"..." (Name) could only stare at her sleeping face with a sad smile, "I hope you don't hate me once I tell you she's still alive..."

"Come on, wait for me!"

"Good morning!"

Gilda placed down empty plates on the table, scolding Phil while she was at it, "No running, Phil!"

Emma had furrowed eyebrows while placing down plates, sighing lightly.

"Does this go here?"

"Yes, thank you."

Emma's body stiffened, her eyes showing fear as she turned her head around to see 'Mom' with the little children.

"Mark, can you set that table?"

"Okay, mom!"

Isabella smiled warmly down at the child, sending chills down Emma's spine. She could only stand there and tremble.

She turned around once she heard footsteps nearing her, seeing (Name) waving at her with a smile, "Good morning, Emma!"

He slung an arm over the girls shoulder, "Aww Emma. Don't look so sad! Smile!" He grinned as he pinched the girls cheeks upward.
